that is why clinton had a surplus. that surplus was because he put the amount that is in the social security trust fund into that figure that made it appeared to be a surplus. we never had a surplus. the bottom line is, this is a ponzi scheme. the government does not take this money and invest it like a bank would. they do not lend it out and get 19% interest like credit cards or 8% on mortgages, so you cannot generate a critical mass of money for the retirement generation because -- like i said, my father put in 13,000 and got out $330,000. who makes up that difference? the taxpayers. guest: i cannot agree more. i am one of the beneficiaries. i am the first year of the baby boomers. i read an article that said if i live out a normal life span, i will get about $300 in medicare and social security for every dollar i put in. my parents, who are a little younger than your parents, and are still alive, have gotten many, many times more out of so security than they put in. it is a ponzi scheme. if a private entity did with
